The USA was just recovering from the Great Depression. People were feeling more optimistic
about their futures. Thanks to the new highway building effort people could now travel on PAVED
highways…IMAGINE!! And they didn’t want to sleep in their cars…motels had yet
to sprung up everywhere. So what can a guy do? Probably bring his tent because he couldn’t afford those new fangled
travel trailers. Unless your name was Ginger Rogers, Audrey Hepburn, Lauran Bacall, Fred Astaire or any other movie star of
the era.They could afford the latest toy for the rich, the Covered Wagon
De Luxe Model mobile travel trailer.
